PrimeSource Receives Patent on Premium Grip-Rite ShingleLayment
IRVING, Texas — PrimeSource Building Products recently was awarded a patent for its innovative design of a synthetic underlayment called ShingleLayment, which the company claims is the only synthetic underlayment in the market designed to protect a roof and look like a shingled rooftop during construction.
“Homeowners don’t want to be looking out at a sea of blue tarps or product logos covering unfinished roofs during a construction project,” said Peter Barrego, vice president of global sourcing. “We decided to create an effective synthetic underlayment that also looks good.”
